Time to learn a new language

A friend of mine named Jennifer sent me this amusing e-mail with an insight that until now had escaped me completely. Jennifer writes:

“The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans.

“The French eat a lot of fat and also suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans.

“The Japanese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans.

“The French and Italians drink large amounts of red wine and also suffer fewer heart attacks than the British or Americans.

CONCLUSION:

Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what causes heart attacks.”

As nutrition logic it’s ridiculously oversimplified, of course, but why take chances?

Bon Sant!
